A targeted Korean pore treatment that softens stubborn sebum, blackheads and pore buildup for smoother, visibly cleaner-looking pores—without squeezing or harsh pore strips.
The ilso Super Melting Sebum Softener is a water-type pore treatment designed to loosen and soften accumulated sebum before removal. Its Sebum Remove Complex, together with willow bark extract, papaya extract and papain, helps lift pore buildup and dead skin cells, while Centella Asiatica, Houttuynia Cordata, panthenol and squalane help keep the skin comfortable during intensive pore care.
This special set includes 40 ilso Skin Wrap Cotton Pads, which can be saturated with the formula and placed closely over the nose, chin or other congested areas for 10–15 minutes. The watery texture makes it particularly suited to targeted blackhead and sebaceous-filament care.
✨ Recommended for:
- Oily, combination or congested skin
- Visible blackheads and sebaceous filaments
- Clogged or enlarged-looking pores
- Excess sebum around the nose, chin and T-zone
- Rough texture caused by pore buildup
- Anyone looking for an alternative to squeezing or pore strips
- At-home Korean pore-care routines
✨ Why choose ilso?
ilso is a Korean skincare brand particularly focused on pore, sebum and blackhead care. Rather than relying on aggressive physical extraction, the Super Melting Sebum Softener prepares stubborn pore buildup for easier removal by first softening it.
The formula combines sebum-cleansing ingredients with botanical extracts and soothing skincare ingredients, making the process gentler than manually squeezing congested pores. This special edition is particularly convenient because the 40 Skin Wrap Cotton Pads are already included.
- Key Benefits
✅ Softens stubborn sebum & blackheads
The Sebum Remove Complex is designed to break down and soften accumulated pore buildup, making sebum and blackheads easier to remove without aggressive squeezing.
✅ Papaya + Papain exfoliation
Papaya fruit extract and the papain enzyme help loosen dead skin cells and impurities that can contribute to rough texture and congested-looking pores.
✅ Willow Bark for pore care
Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract complements the pore-cleansing formula and is particularly suited to oily and congestion-prone skin.
✅ Soothing botanical complex
Centella Asiatica, Houttuynia Cordata, Chamomile, Panthenol and Madecassoside help soothe and condition the skin during pore care.
✅ Helps improve the appearance of pores
By removing excess sebum and accumulated debris, the treatment leaves congested areas looking cleaner, smoother and more refined.
✅ 40 Skin Wrap Cotton Pads included
The thin, flexible pads are designed to adhere closely to areas such as the nose and help keep the liquid in contact with congested skin throughout the treatment.
- Directions
First, use warm water to help prepare the skin and pores.
Saturate an ilso Skin Wrap Cotton Pad thoroughly with the Super Melting Sebum Softener. Place it over areas with excess sebum, blackheads or sebaceous filaments and leave on for approximately 10–15 minutes.
Keep the pad sufficiently wet during use; add more product if it begins to dry. Remove the pad, then gently remove the softened sebum using a cotton swab or an ilso Deep Clean Master tool. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water after use, as the formula contains cleansing ingredients.
